Three Easy Games

Commercial Games
There are a few commercial games such as Scrabble, Pictionary or Balderdash. If you play these games make sure the children have the ability to play or that someone is available to help them. Children's confidence can be diminished if they are unable to feel successful (and have fun) when playing games.
